Catching Up on Sleep

February 28, 2024

Catching up on sleep is something many people try to do with weekend sleep, but research shows that it’s not as simple as it seems! In fact, if you spend more time in bed over the weekend to catch up on sleep, your body may not respond the way you expect. Studies show it can take an average of 4 days to recover from just 1 hour of lost sleep. However, trying to catch up on sleep may lead your body to respond in unexpected ways. Your brain capability, memory, concentration, and performance are impacted, and even your metabolism and muscle optimization can be affected. Find out what happens when you attempt to recover from sleep deprivation! #BeWell
